CD Reviews

I really like this little known piece by Chick Corea.

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This piece was originally written for the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center who asked Corea to compose some music for the New World Festival held in Miami on June 13, 1982. The is one of his first ventures into large scale composition of a classical nature. Many of the songs I have found on this CD remind me of the work on Ryuichi Sakamoto's 1996, but of course this came 14 years sooner. They also make me wonder what a blend of Spanish and Russian scores would sound like. In the end I don't know why this album is not more popular, but I highly recomend it especially if you like "world" styled modern classical, or chamber music. You'll like it."
